Figure 3 Effects of anti-FasL monoclonal antibody (mAb) treatment on the expression of proinflammatory cytokine transcripts and Coxsackie virus B3 (CVB3) genomes in the ventricular tissues. Total ribonucleic acid was prepared from ventricular tissues of mice from mouse immunoglobulin G (IgG)-treated control group and anti-FasL mAb-treated group, and analyzed for CVB3, interferon (IFN)-gamma, interleukin (IL)-2, inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) and glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH) transcripts by a semiquantitative polymerase chain reaction method.
